After 3 years or so of using #Brave browser, saved me about 23 hours just from saving ads download time. You won’t even notice it. I have very fast internet connection at home. Harder to measure is the distractions time saved from ads. #noads eplt.medium.com/why-use-brave-… pic.twitter.com/NEzXbYVEXf

Somehow I am not comfortable with #ElonMusk having full visual and audio access right into my home. Does he seem like someone who will respect user #privacy? I don’t want to find out years later that his twisted version of free-speech includes free spying. republicworld.com/technology-new…

#macOSMonterey Live Text is great, not that we haven’t seen OCR before, but not as well integrated to the system and all done locally. I won’t trust #Google or #Facebook getting all text from my photo library without pushing me more ads. apple.com/macos/monterey…
